Regarding the Arnold, I presume you mean the 3 Hyperion Helios discs - plenty of excellent listening to look forward to there.

This 9cd Mozart wind and violin concertos set is available from Amazon UK for £6.07 - presumably another pricing error. The ASIN number is B008CYV02I

Off topic but this my home territory as it were, may I say that I have been saddened by the glee and at best tasteless remarks made by many of the lead contributors to these boards over on Platform 3 following the death of Lady Thatcher. My respect for these individuals whose knowledge and understanding of musical matters I have much appreciated and learnt from, has taken a considerable knock to the extent that I no longer wish to share their company. For the time being I am therefore taking a sabbatical from reading and occasionally contributing to these boards. I hope the unpleasantness is short-lived.

Searching around, the best deal I've found for the soon to be released , Songs by Britten, Ian Bostridge/Pappano, EMI, is at £9 99,post free, from the grocers. Probably takes a few more days for delivery but the offer is several pounds less than the competitors.

Real joy when the much discussed Schoenberg, Berg & Webern/Sinopoli, 8CD set, arrived this morning, debited at £3 66, post free. Motivated me to go and cut the grass without much ado - and even the sun shone bright!
